During WWII there was a culture of "pin-up girls". And armies throughout history have had camp followers, prostitutes, etc. Armies don't have camp followers anymore that disappeared with modern warfare. During WWII there was also a tradition known as "nose art". Pilots would have paintings done on the nose of their aircraft, usually of pretty girls but not always.
